Zinc has become the best-known mineral for supporting immune health. It is essential for cell division, which is pivotal when immune cells are rapidly multiplying to meet the requirements of the immune system. It also assists in a wide range of specific immune functions, such as helping special types of immune cells called B cells and T cells function properly. If dietary zinc intake is insufficient, the body will break down zinc-containing enzymes it deems less essential to release the zinc so it can be used for more critical functions.
Zinc is found mostly in meat and seafood, particularly oysters and mollusks. If oysters-on-the-half-shell are not part of your daily diet, zinc is also found to some extent in poultry and dairy. Since zinc is mostly found in animal products, vegetarians can have a difficult time getting adequate amounts of zinc through diet alone. Seniors have also been found to consume less than the recommended amounts of zinc. Choosing a high-quality zinc supplement is an easy way to help fill those nutritional gaps, and Puritan’s Pride has vegetarian-friendly options.
